  • I can't find my old emails that is to say the last 4 years e-mails have disappeared. I can't see in the 'archives' folder list and also in my list of "local" files

    I can't find my old emails that is to say the last 4 years e-mails have disappeared. I can't see in the 'archives' folder list and also in my list of "local" files
    I recently formatted my system. It causes this problem? Is there anyway to recover my emails?

    Assuming that really format you your hard drive.
    Can erase you every single entry to a file, message, photo, program, document, etc. When you select format you get warnings on this subject.
    The format is the last thing you want to do without going through a backup of your personal and important files.

    Local folders is automatically created when you installed Tbird.
    And it is empty until you move something over there.
    (Your former local folder with all its files and messages has been removed under format).

    Only messages that are still on your server (stbeehive.oracle.com) can be recovered.

  • updated leopard tp el capitan and can find my old email files

    I've upgraded to el capitan leopard 10.6 and opening email and can not find my old records. How can I find them?

    The mailbox list is divided into categories with such topics on my Mac. When you position the cursor on one of these positions (with the exception of the mailboxes), you should see the Word display / hide it on the right. Please, click on show, if that's what you see.

    In the category of the mailboxes, the mailboxes are arranged in groups, such as Inbox. To the left of each group is a small tip of arrow. If the arrow points to the right, click it so that it points downwards.

    Also note that you may need to scroll the list of mailboxes upwards or downwards to see it all.

  • I can't find my old emails. What happened to them? There is nothing in my Inbox.

    I've always had an email at Hotmail.com account and now I can not find.  My son sent me a few pictures, and today he asked me if I had them.  I still can't find them or any others.  Help!  What happened to them?

    If you use Windows Live Hotmail, then your email messages must be healthy and safe on a remove server, all you have to do is sign in to your account at http://mail.live.com

    You use a client such as Microsoft Outlook, Windows Live Mail desktop?

    If you used your Hotmail account with a desktop like Windows Live Mail client and you upgraded from a previous version of Windows, you will need to retrieve your email using the Windows.old folder.

  • I used email TB. My Windows 10 has crashed and had to be reimagee. I reinstalled TB. How can I get my old emails in my new installation of tuberculosis?

    I used TB on system W10, very well. MS has pushed an upgrade for W10 and it totally screwed my system. I had to reimage my system with W10. That worked well, was supposed to keep my data but amazed my programs. This turned out to be true that I reinstalled my programs and data for them were always there. I reinstalled TB, has functioned well, currently able to download all new emails, but I can't find my old emails or my old profile name. Can someone tell me where to look my old data, if by chance its still there? I guess that's all my data was still there, but you never know people with MS.

    OK, think about it. Old profile is located in the Windows.old folder. You can move your old profile from the windows.old folder and place it in the current profile folder, and then go and change your profiles.ini and remove your new profile name and enter in your old profile name, then restart TB. Worked like a champ.

  • The Apple showing in the page settings of ICloud ID does not go and watch my old email address that does not exist as an Apple ID.

    ID showing in the page settings of ICloud Apple won't and watch my old email address that does not exist in the Apple continues to him I identification code is required to sign in this old apple ID, but when I try to reset the password of the site Web of Apple tells me that this 'old' email address is not a piece of identification If that makes sense. I tried to disconnect from ICloud, but always keep asking the password sign to find my Ipad.

    I know my good Apple ID and password and have checked the details on Apple's site that shows the Ipad on the list of devices.

    The Ipad will connect has WiFi and I took it at John Lewis today where I bought it and they think that the problem is being caused by this problem of ID.

    Another that take it to the Apple store, anyone have any suggestions please?

    Welcome to the Apple community.

    If you are unable to remember your password, security issues, do not have access to your address of rescue or are unable to reset your password for any reason, your only option is to contact the Support of Apple ID, to speak to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID This way you can be attributed to the assistance, even if you do not have an AppleCare plan.

    You will need to be patient with the process and to be ready to prove without doubt that the account belongs to you. Do not expect access to be restored immediately and if you are not the owner of the Apple ID saved to the device the account will not be reset.

  • Recovery of the old emails after a system recovery

    I did a system restore on a windows xp computer and have reconfigured my version of Microsoft Outlook Express 6 to retrieve my e-mail... provider I got 6 new messages, but I can't understand how to recover my old emails (that have been read) among the items received/sent box etc... is possible to synchronize these old data?

    You have probably a message like store on the disk somewhere.  Seewww.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4 make sure that you enable the display of the hidden files and folders and disable Hide extensions of the types of files known as control panel | Folder options | View and then do an advanced search for *.dbx and make sure you include hidden files and folders under the advanced search options.  Then you should find the directory more old dbx files (they will have a date older) and you can do file | Import | Messages and choose to import from a directory, and then point to her and she should get back them.

  • How can I download a file of old emails from Windows Mail (not Windows Live Mail) to a flash drive?

    Left Sode of the screen of Windows Mail are the names of files where the old emails can be stored. How to find the and then download them to a file separately on aflash drive as a back-up? They can be found using Windows Explorer or by using the regular 'real estate' research given to you by right-clicking on the name of the file in the Mail window.

    Messages are stored in a hidden folder that you can locate it in Windows Explorer.  To do this go to the control panel. Folder options | View and uncheck Hide extensions of known file types and also to verify the possibility to see the hidden files and folders.  Then in Winmail opener you can go to tools | Options | Maintenance | Advanced | Store the folder to view the location of the message store.  You can then navigate to that folder in Windows Explorer and slot that you will find a subdirectory "Local Folders" and by whom are all of your boxes to the letters and messages stored as eml files.  You can copy this store of the entirety of the message, and then on an external drive to back it up.  I believe you can also use file | Export | Messages in Winmail to save outside.

    See also www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for more information about the registry settings and message store organization.

  • BlackBerry smartphones download old Emails on BlackBerry with IMAP

    I just got a BB Curve 8330 Sprint and set up my IMAP e-mail account. I'm on a Mac, and PocketMac is not a useful way to get my email from Mail.app on my BlackBerry. My BB works fine when I get a new email: it is visible on the BB before it appears on the computer. My problem, however, is that I want all of my old emails and files downloaded on my BB. Because of my previous experiences with IMAP, I thought that when they were connected the BB would automatically download all of these emails and folders, but I could not do make or find answers online. So I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and how you solved. Nothing don't that seems to be working.

    Thank you.

    not possible unless you transfer all your emails to yourself

    BB will capture only whats new from the time that you integrate the e-mail account to your BB

  • Search in the start menu displays old emails from my Hotmail account, how can I stop this?

    Search in the start menu displays old emails from my Hotmail account. I find it tiresome and very secure as anyone who uses my computer can read my emails.  I guess my computer is somehow related to my Windows Live account. I did a search for these emails in my Hotmail account and they don't even exist.

    How can I go to stop this? I tried to look in the Windows Live options but couldn't find anything. Thank you

    These files are probably within your e-mail program on your computer (for example, Outlook, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird or another program).

    You can turn off the messages to appear in the search results, but anyone could still just open your e-mail program and snooping.  The only way to be really sure is to use a password on your computer and let other people use a guest account (or make their own account).
